A couple OOB errors...

[Cirdan]

Eryx ATGM: The Eryx launcher uses a Thermal Imaging scope, as far as I can tell issued as part of the launcher's aiming sysrem, but no Eryx unit has TI capability in-game, at least in the French OOB. I haven't checked for the other users (Canada and Norway, mainly).

AGS-17 AGL: the Syrian weapons differ greatly in HE kill from the weapons used by other countries (6 rather than 15). The Syrians may be using the older, less effective ammunition or something, but this difference seems to massive to be correct. Also, the points cost is clearly wrong, being much more than for 12.7mm machine guns which are significantly better in every particular (still for the Syrians).

I've put this on the list to investigate

The Eryx use the MIRABEL thermal imager.

Probably a variant of the MIRA used for MILAN's ATGM.

I guess I better put this here than start a new thread with the same title...

oob54
weapons 172 and 176 are class 19 (Autocannon) when they should be class 11 (aircraft weapon)

oob53
unit 268: gun #4 has no ammo

oob46
all the various Saurer family APCs have a swim speed - I'm pretty sure that's wrong (units 30-35 and 221-225)

various
the BRDM-2 has swim speed 2 in some OOBs, but 4 in others

Just looking into this now as I didn't have time at the original posting

The Eryx teams in the French OOB have vision 15. That allows them to see 15 hexes or 750 yards in the dark. The standard night sight on that weapon is a Sopelem OB-50 which is rated for not much better. The MIRABEL is an option and it's only good for 1000 yards ( 20 in the game ) but please note BOTH of those ranges exceed the actual range of the Eryx it self ( 12 hexes or 600 metres )

15 vision is plenty and all nations using the Eryx now have 15 vision ( most already did a couple didn't ). The available sights for this weapon do not justify a 40( TI ).


The AGS-17 AGL HE kill ( 6 ) in the Iraqi and Syrian OOB's is wrong and has been corrected
